The 2014 Live on the Green lineup has just been announced, and man is it a doozy. As we previously told you, this year’s installment of the free Thursday night live music series in Public Square Park will change format just a bit, forgoing the traditional six-week timeframe in favor of four weeks, with an epic…
Happy Thursday Nashville! If you’re at all like us, Thursday has become your favorite day of the week in this past month. Why’s that? Nashville Dancin’, of course. The free concert series (which we’ve covered a few times before) has been a real success this summer, drawing folks out to Riverfront Park for the past two weeks…
If you crave drama and excitement put to some amazing music, then The High Watt is where you want to be tonight. The only band featured for the evening is Jail Weddings, but the group’s eccentric way of presenting themselves is enough to upstage anyone, so it makes sense that they’re the only ones on the lineup for…
It seems like every year, a new crop of amazing music festivals pops up, and, being the conveniently centrally located city that Nashville is, even many of the out of town ones are pleasantly drivable. While it certainly isn’t new (it originally ran from 1994-2005), and it’s only one of several great fests nearby,…
Canadian electro-funk duo Chromeo are having a great year. Their fourth album, White Women, has been met with nonstop critical praise, as well as the group’s highest chart performance to date, and their latest single, “Jealous (I Ain’t With It),” might just be their catchiest ever, and seems poised to become a smash summer anthem (watch its…
Enigmatic Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas has announced the next chapter of his solo career, a new group called Julian Casablancas+The Voidz, and, while the singer released an album under his own name, Phrazes for the Young, in 2009, The Voidz’ upcoming Tyranny, due out Sept. 23 on Julian’s own Cult Records, is being billed as their debut. The newly formed…
Country legend Loretta Lynn has announced not one, but two back to back performances this fall, Oct. 10 and 11, at just about the most perfect place we can ever imagine catching her: The Ryman Auditorium. Contrary to what the name of this site might imply, we have a ton of respect for country’s roots and its instrumental…
Are you looking for a way to get over the hump on hump day? Have the mid-week blues been fucking up your mojo as of late? Well, fear not faithful readers, because if you want to kick the rest of your week into high gear, we have the show for you! Brooklyn punk rock…
Supergroup Broken Bells have extended their fall North American tour, and, lucky us, it now includes a Sept. 29 stop at the Mother Church itself, The Ryman. The band, which is comprised of The Shins’ James Mercer and superproducer/Gnarls Barkley member Dangermouse, wowed us last weekend at Bonnaroo. Whether you caught them at ‘Roo or not, their Ryman debut,…

Doors open at 8 p.m., and the show kicks off at 9 p.m. Tickets are just $5, and, to make things better, half of 12th and…
